Adding actions

We have seen how to create a custom panel and how to save brushes and colors inside. However, custom panels may also contain actions such as functions, scripts, etc... Their icons and information may be changed also.

Adding an action is done using the option Add Action:

  • Using the first two text fields you may define a name and in-line help comment for your future customized function.
  • The List, Tool and A Color buttons and menus will allow you to choose the icon corresponding to the action you will create.

You can add icons to actions. A number of icons are already available in TVPaint. To create a new icon, you simply have to create a brush with its image and select the Tool button.

  • The numbered lines are the actions to be carried out one after the other when you click on the icon corresponding to your function.
